For several decades, the Baltimore Orioles were the envy of every Major League Baseball team. Stars like Rick Dempsey and Cal Ripken, Jr. brought life and power to a team full of dedication and fun. Under Buck Showalter, they regained momentum, boasting winning seasons and clinching their division title for the 2014 playoffs.
Now fans of this indomitable team can walk into the glory of Camden Yards and onto the field with Louis Berney’s newly revised edition of Tales from the Baltimore Orioles Dugout. Berney provides countless stories of players, filling the pages with both memorable moments on the field and silly anecdotes from inside the clubhouse or on the road. Individually, these stories are funny, poignant, and eccentric. Collectively, they offer a portrait of a team that is as much a family and a community treasure as it is a professional sports organization.
